I CAN`T GET THE ACER ORBICAM TO WORK, PROG. MAY OR MAY NOT ,WORK. PLEASE HELP THANK YOU PS. MY MACHINE IS ( ASPIRE 5610Z )

It's called Bison_CCD_5_0_0_10f .
Go to acer site ,download ,drivers and you'll find for your 5610 maybe with other version or numbers.

You need to go to manufactures website and download/reinstall drivers for this camera. Go to this site http://www.acer.co.uk/acer/service.do?LanguageISOCtxParam=en&miu10einu24.current.attN2B2F2EEF=3734&sp=page15e&ctx2.c2att1=17&miu10ekcond13.attN2B2F2EEF=3734&CountryISOCtxParam=UK&ctx1g.c2att92=122&ctx1.att21k=1&CRC=2980211862 and choose your camera. Install drivers and restart machine. It should work just fine. Good luck!

Hi thank you for visiting and am willing to help you with that problem, if the orbicam stop working its because the drivers which activate the cam could be missing so i have a good suggestion for you that should fix that problem, go to: www.acer-orbicam.software.informer.com and download the software driver for your orbicam and your computer will be fine one more
if my advise is helpful to you please give me your vote
thank you

Do you have software for tis device ie orbicam? installtion of drives (orbicam instalation CD ) should do the trick .
Swap ports sometimes the USB port ur using has poor contact with the pin .

Good luck

ubntu community posts can help u better way try that

Here are 3 links to orbicam software that are for the 5610Z.

They were all designed to work for XP, but I hope that one of them will work for you.

Check this link : Aspire 5050

Please check in device manager, is it there ?
it's supposed to be under imaging device.

If it isnot there, it's mean it's hardware, it can be orbicam cable or orbicam itself is bad.
In this case, try to reseat the orbicam cable, it's beside power button, you need to open the power cover (power cover is long cover where the power button reside), you just need to remove 2 scews on power cover, it's in lcd hinges. there are 2 cable beside power button, the camera cable is the cable that come from lcd, not from uppercase.

if your orbicam is in the device manager, try to re-install orbicam software. if you don't have orbicam software, you can download it from www.acerpanam.com.

I hope this will help you.
